I am so sorry for any mistakes

"Lidia baby why are you sleeping in the tub" my mom asked waking me up. I didn't know I've fallen sleep in the tub full of now cold water. " you must have had a rough day come here" she grabbed  my towel and wrapped it around my shivering body   " aww sweetie you're shivering" she guiding me to my bed. "Lay there let me get you something warm to wear" I nodded and got under my blanket as I continue to shiver. 

I don't remember how I fell asleep all I remember was the scene that occurred. I wish I could tell her what really led me to fall asleep in the tub but I cant,  I know she would want to protect me and in the process get herself killed. The idea of her husband raping me when she's not home will cause her to do the unthinkable. 

"Here you go sweetie put this on and take this Tylenol it will help with what ever pain you're feeling" I dragged myself out of bed and put the sweat pants and hoodie on. After I took the Tylenol I climbed back in bed. She added two more blankets to the ones I already had 

"Well I will be in the other room if you need anything" she said as she kissed my forehead "I will make an appointment with Perez tomorrow to check the baby and see if everything is fine ok?"

At least I don't have to go to school tomorrow" Ok mom thank you for everything I really appreciate it" I said honestly 

"You're welcome baby" she said walking to the door. As soon as she turned off the light and closed the door I pulled the blanket over my head, closed my eyes and drifted off to sleep.
